Here are Thursday’s minor moves from around the league:

Green Bay Packers

Elevated from practice squad: OT Brant Banks, CB Micah Robinson
Placed on injured reserve: DL Brenton Cox

Minnesota Vikings

Signed from practice squad: WR Tim Jones, TE Nick Vannett

New York Giants

Claimed off waivers: WR/KR Xavier Gipson
Placed on IR: LB Micah McFadden (story)

Seattle Seahawks

Signed from practice squad: CB Shaquill Griffin
Released: WR Cody White

Washington Commanders

Elevated from practice squad: C Michael Deiter, P Mitch Wishnowsky

Gipson was waived by the Jets after a costly fumble in Week 1, but will not need to switch states (or even home stadiums) when joining the Giants. The 24-year-old will serve as a depth receiver for his new team and could also contribute as a returner.

The NFL also issued a three-game suspension for free agency safety Qwuantrezz Knight, per KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson. Knight appeared in six games for the Cardinals in 2023.

NFL Minor Transactions: 9/8/25

Today’s minor moves:

Chicago Bears

Promoted: LB Carl Jones, DL Tanoh Kpassagnon
Waived from IR: C Doug Kramer

Dallas Cowboys

Placed on IR: DT Perrion Winfrey

Denver Broncos

Waived from IR: DT Kristian Williams

Minnesota Vikings

Promoted: WR Tim Jones

New Orleans Saints

Waived: DE Fadil Diggs

New York Jets

Signed to active roster: WR Tyler Johnson

Philadelphia Eagles

Signed to active roster: LB Patrick Johnson

Free Agency

Suspended: DB Kemon Hall

Cowboys defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey will now be out through the month of September after landing on IR today. Winfrey has been dealing with a back injury that forced him to miss the season opener. The 25-year-old joined the Cowboys back in June following a successful showing in the UFL.

Free agent defensive back Kemon Hall has been hit with a three-game ban, according to ESPN’s Ben Baby. The suspension would go into effect once the player joins a team. The 2019 UDFA most recently spent the preseason with the Cowboys. He was among the team’s final cuts and subsequently landed on their practice squad, but he was released days later. The 28-year-old has appeared in 24 career games.

Minor NFL Transactions: 3/18/25

March 18th, 2025 at 8:32pm CST by Ely Allen

Tuesday’s minor transactions:

Chicago Bears

Re-signed: C Doug Kramer

Detroit Lions

Re-signed: DE Pat O’Connor, TE Shane Zylstra

Las Vegas Raiders

Re-signed: DT Zachary Carter

Minnesota Vikings

Signed: WR Tim Jones

New Orleans Saints

Re-signed: T Landon Young
Signed: OL Will Clapp

New York Giants

Signed: OLB Victor Dimukeje

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Re-signed: CB Bryce Hall

Washington Commanders

Signed: T Foster Sarell

Clapp returns to the Big Easy after three seasons away from the team. Clapp has enjoyed more opportunities to start with the Chargers and Bills over the past three years after only starting seven of 34 game appearances in New Orleans. He’ll likely serve as a reliable backup to Erik McCoy who has missed 19 games in the last four seasons, including 10 last year.

Minor NFL Transactions: 4/12/24

April 12th, 2024 at 8:44pm CST by Adam La Rose

Friday’s minor moves:

New Orleans Saints

Re-signed: CB Shemar Jean-Charles

Seattle Seahawks

Signed: WR Tim Jones, CB Gregory Junior, OL Cole Van Lanen

Jean-Charles spilt his time between the 49ers and Saints in 2023, finishing the campaign in New Orleans. He was used all-but exclusively on special teams during that time, which has also been the case throughout the rest of his career. The 25-year-old will have the chance to carve out a larger role in his first full season with New Orleans if he can make the active roster at the start of the 2024 campaign.

Jones, Junior and Van Lanen were each tendered as exclusive rights restricted free agents, so their respective deals come as no surprise. Seattle’s OTAs began this week, and each member of the trio will now be in place to take part in on-field work when that takes place before competing for roster spots in training camp.

Jaguars Cut Tim Tebow

August 17th, 2021 at 8:44am CST by Zachary Links

Tim Tebow‘s time with the Jaguars has come to an end. On Tuesday morning, the Jaguars released the former UF superstar as they work their way down to an 85-man roster.

“Thankful for the highs and even the lows, the opportunities, and the setbacks,” said Tebow on Twitter. “I’ve never wanted to make decisions out of fear of failure and I’m grateful for the chance to have pursued a dream. Thank you to the Jaguars organization and everyone who has supported me in this journey.”

Head coach Urban Meyer previously said that Tebow did a “decent job” in practice . Over the summer, 46% of PFR readers said Tebow would make Jacksonville’s 53-man roster, while another 25% said the ex-Broncos QB1 and Mets farmhand would land on the practice squad. The practice squad remains a possibility, but Tebow won’t be on the Jaguars’ varsity squad to start the year.

Tebow bulked up to 255 pounds — up ~20 from his quarterback days — to move to TE. Washington tight end Logan Thomas proved that the transition could be done, but it took him several years to find his footing. Of course, the ex-Virginia Tech quarterback made the move in his mid-20s; Tebow was trying it at the age of 33.

Due to his NFL service time, Tebow will be a full-fledged free agent by the end of the business day. However, it’s not clear if Tebow will receive — or pursue — an opportunity elsewhere.

In addition to Tebow, the Jaguars have also made the following moves to reach the 85-man max:

CB D.J. Daniel (waived)
WR Josh Imatorbhebhe (waived/injured)
WR Tim Jones (waived/injured)
DT Daniel Ross (IR)

Jaguars Sign 5 UDFAs

May 8th, 2021 at 3:11pm CST by Sam Robinson

The Jaguars signed the highest-profile undrafted free agent, agreeing to terms with former Alabama standout Dylan Moses. The team announced the rest of its initial UDFA haul. Here is the rest of Jacksonville’s group:

D.J. Daniel, CB (Georgia)
Josh Imatorbhebhe, WR (Illinois)
Tim Jones, WR (Southern Miss)
Kenny Randall, DT (Charleston)
Corey Straughter, CB (Louisiana Monroe)

The two wide receivers follow a Jags draft that included one wideout — Georgia Tech’s Jalen Camp in Round 6. The team authorized a sizable guarantee to Jones, whom veteran NFL reporter Aaron Wilson tweets will collect $180K. Jacksonville guaranteed $165K of Jones’ base salary and will add a $15K signing bonus. Jones operated as a key Southern Miss target from 2018-20, posting his best season — a 73-catch, 902-yard campaign — as a junior in 2019.

Additionally, the Jaguars are guaranteeing Randall $120K, Wilson adds (on Twitter). Once a Temple commit, Randall played three seasons with Division II Charleston (W.V.). Randall, who joins seventh-round Colts wideout Mike Strachan as Charleston players to land with AFC South squads this year, registered 32.5 tackles for loss in three college seasons. He opted out of his senior season, which the pandemic moved to the spring.
